Chinatown Cafe

Chinatown Cafe on Harrison Avenue is a stop for Cantonese roast meats and rice plates. Roast duck, barbecue pork and soy sauce chicken are central to the menu, and combination plates let you try more than one without ordering separate mains. If you like crisp pork skin, look for the roast pork option.

Noodle soups and stir-fried noodles offer another way to make a meal, with wonton soup and beef chow fun among the choices. The restaurant sits in Tai Tung Village, farther down Harrison Avenue from the busiest stretch around Beach Street. Keep it in mind when you’re after a rice plate to take away or a straightforward sit-down meal.
